French Ligue 1 side Nantes want Nigeria international winger Moses Simon to shun any move to a team in same league with them as they come to terms with the fact that he will leave the club this summer, OwnGoalNigeria.com can exclusively reveal.
Simon is leaning towards staying in France largely due to family reasons despite offers from around three teams in England namely Newcastle United, Brighton and Hove Albion as well as Leeds United.
Already OGC Nice have failed with a bid of €10m for the 26 year old Nigerian with Nantes insisting on €15m but the fee doesn’t seem to be the only problem as they are unwilling to sell him to a direct rival.
His representatives have been told by Nantes to prioritise a move to a team abroad preferably the English Premier League, where he is a target for three teams as said above.
We exclusively gathered that more talks will be held between his representatives and the club to find a common ground as the 2021 Africa Player of the year nominee has been a faithful servant to the club.
